I drove this scenic route twice and both times it was amazing. There are some points along the drive that are quite stressful, especially in the thick fog. Single lanes with few pull-out areas. It was worth it though as the drive offers one of the most scenic views of the Blaskets Islands. There are also many famous landmarks along the route including the Gallarus Oratory which I photographed and posted earlier this summer. An interesting tidbit is that the Spanish container ship, Ranga, was wrecked at Dunmore Head, close to Slea Head after losing power in a storm back in 1982.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12888\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12888\" style=\"width: 1125px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/20170703-cross-at-slea-head-aa1-edit.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12888\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/2017\/09\/cross-at-slea-head\/cross-at-slea-head-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/20170703-cross-at-slea-head-aa1-edit.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1125,1500\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;11&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Terry B.
